Icon of the Week



Just in case you didn't recognize him, my official icon -- for now, at least -- is Juan Seguín, the Tejano hero who fought on the winning side of the Texas Revolution. Later on, he would also fight for equal rights for Texans of Mexican descent -- but it would be a fight that he would lose.

I will admit that he is not as recognizable as Zorro but he is still worth knowing about. And unlike Zorro, he actually did exist in real life.
